GKOI Live is the desktop app for streaming as your GKOI avatar. It turns your phone or webcam into a motion-capture rig: your expressions, head movement and lip sync drive a high-quality 3D character in real time, so you can go live, record or join a call as your avatar.

Pick a character from your GKOI library, set the scene with backgrounds, lighting and effects, mix your mic and music, and frame your shot. Then stream through GKOI and your other platforms at once, record to MP4, or use the virtual camera in Meet, Zoom, Discord or OBS.

Inside GKOI Live

  • Avatars

    Library & downloads

    Pick your character from a growing library of 3D avatars, from MetaHumans to stylised and fantasy characters. Avatars on your GKOI account download straight into the app.

  • Tracking

    Face · head · lip sync

    Your avatar mirrors you live. Track with your phone or your webcam: expressions, head movement and lip sync come through on every avatar, MetaHuman or stylised.

  • Animations

    Idles & motions

    Give your avatar life between lines with idles and motions. They play on the body while face tracking keeps your expressions and lip movement live.

  • Scene

    Backgrounds & lighting

    Set the stage with backgrounds: built-in scenes, your own images and videos, or a keying colour. Lighting and shadows are adjustable to suit the look.

  • Effects

    Auras · bursts · states

    Add auras, bursts and character states to your avatar with a click. Use them to mark a big moment on stream or simply to set a mood.

  • Audio

    Mic · music · sounds

    Mix your microphone, music and app sounds in one place. Play music and soundboard pads, change your voice with built-in presets, and choose exactly what your viewers hear.

  • Framing

    Zoom · pan · rotate

    Frame your shot the way you want: zoom, pan, rotate and orbit the camera around your avatar. The app remembers your framing for each avatar.

  • Output

    Stream · VCam · Record

    Go live, record, or use GKOI Live as a camera. Stream through GKOI or directly to your platforms, record to MP4, or turn on the virtual camera to appear as your avatar in Meet, Zoom, Discord or OBS.
